Sea Freight to Kenya
FCL and LCL shipping to Mombasa from China, Dubai, India, the UK and more.
What this service covers
Sea freight is the most affordable way to move goods to Kenya in volume. We book full container loads (FCL) and less-than-container loads (LCL) from our regular origins — China, Dubai, Turkey, the UK, the USA, India, Pakistan and the Netherlands — and clear them when they arrive at Mombasa. Because clearing and trucking sit under the same roof, your cargo keeps moving after it lands.
Who it's for
- Importers buying from China, Dubai, India or Europe
- Businesses restocking on a regular schedule
- Smaller traders who only have a few cartons — LCL was built for you
- Anyone who wants one contact from supplier to door

Questions
Sea Freight to Kenya — FAQs
How long does sea freight to Kenya take?
It depends on the origin and the shipping line — typically a few weeks from Asia and the Gulf, and longer from Europe and the US. We confirm the expected sailing and arrival window when we quote.
What is the difference between FCL and LCL?
FCL means your goods fill a whole container. LCL means your cargo shares a container with other customers and you pay only for your volume. LCL suits small shipments; FCL is cheaper per unit when you have volume.
Can you buy from my supplier on my behalf?
We can coordinate with your supplier on documentation and loading. If you need help sourcing, talk to us — we also assist customers buying directly from China, India and other markets.
